In addition, it would not be that difficult a thing to do if you wanted to
stick all people on such e-mail accounts on review, and simply edit out
that offending portion of their e-mail if it bothers you that much. More
work for the list-owner, but if the list is that important to you, and you
really care about not having such attachments to your list (which I don't,
and I have one hotmail subscriber I might add), and if it is too difficult
to ignore, than sure, filter out all hotmail and juno and rocketmail and
yahoo and any others you come across. I just think you'll end up losing
more people than you are expecting to lose.
